[QUOTE="Redmule454, post: 1228803, member: 7396"] Since you are used to a semi-auto (9mm) you might think about a 1911 in .45 auto and then convert to .45 Super. Plink with the .45 auto and then load the .45 Super when CC and camping. Or get a Springfield Armory V16 in .45 Super, 6" ported bbl. They are now discountinued but you can find used ones. The .45 Super is ballistically similar to the old .41 mag. I also recommend the Ruger revolvers in .44 mag. Shoot .44 Spcl to get used to it. It is just too much fun once you start shooting the magnum loads tho!:hyper: The magnum loads will show you if you are holding the pistol correctly or not. I also like the shoulder rigs when out in the woods. They keep the weight off my hips and belt and don't interfere with moving, I tend to forget I am carring anything. [/QUOTE]
